Delve into the legends and lore of Tolkien’s beloved Lord of the Rings series with Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor. Set between the events of The Hobbit and The Fellowship of the Ring, players take control of a ranger of Gondor named Talion. Mortally wounded by the Black Hand of Sauron, Talion is kept alive by the wraith of the Elf Lord Celebrimbor, who cannot remember his own identity. This connection to the wraith of Celebrimbor gives Talion a host of unique abilities, as he seeks revenge against the forces of Sauron. Meanwhile, Talion will help Celebrimbor find clues to his past. As Talion, utilize the skills of a typical ranger, such as the bow, sword, and stealth. These skills are enhanced by the wraith-like abilities imbued in Talion by Celebrimbor. Defeat the Uruk-hai in battle to gain power and unlock new abilities. Take advantage of the Nemesis system, a unique feature in Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor. Slaying certain Uruk warchiefs will earn you runes that increase the power of your abilities, and weaken Sauron’s army. But fall to them in battle, and they will become more powerful. Lesser Uruk-hai that survive an encounter with Talion will also be promoted and become more dangerous the next time you encounter them. With a responsive, fast-paced combat system that rewards chains and combos by allowing more powerful attacks, Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor immerses you in Tolkein’s world, and lets you deliver swift justice on the followers of Sauron. The sandbox, open-world game also lets you explore Mordor, a grim but beautiful place full of Tolkein lore, as well as side-quests that will help Talion in his quest for revenge against Sauron.
